CEBU, Philippines - City of Naga, known to be the industrial hub in southern Cebu because of its vital industries, will be launching its newest program in pursuit of making the young industrial city an ideal place to live, work and do business with.
Garry Cabotaje, the city information officer, said the new program dubbed as Naga Akong Garbo (NAGa) will be launched this morning at Enan Chiong Activity Center.
Cabotaje said the NAGa program is a sub-project of the Our Cebu Program, formerly known as the expanded Green and Wholesome Environment that Nurtures of the Cebu Provincial Government, which inked a partnership with the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc.
As an integrated and holistic program of the city government, it provides a blueprint for effective and efficient implementation of its long-term goals for sustainable development, officials said in a statement.
Cabotaje also said the primary objective is to continue and improve the delivery of basic services to its constituents through the implementation of effective socio-economic and infrastructure projects; proper management of its natural and man-made resources; maintenance peace and order and strengthening ties with various government agencies and private sectors.
Among the highlights of the activity is the audio-video presentation of the NAGa Program to give the visiting guests led by Cebu Governor Hilario Davide III a glimpse of what the project is all about and its impact to the community.
A commitment building will follow wherein all the stakeholders headed by Mayor Valdemar Chiong will place their bare hands with water-based paint against the wall as a sign of their pledge to support the program. (FREEMAN)
